- Title
La nunciatura de Francesco Tiberi (1827-1834).
- Authors
BALSERA, ANTONIO
- Abstract
Fernando VII went from being the «Wished» to being labeled as king «Felón». Perhaps in his mediocrity, he was not up to the time he lived. His legacy corroborates that: Spain was mired in the Carlist wars, the bloodiest and longest civil strife in its modern history, and the country became a second-rate nation in the European environment. The Apostolic Nuncio appears as dean of the body of almost all nations. The antiquity and experience of the Roman Curia need no introduction. In critical times, the Holy See has traditionally enjoyed prestige for its political tact and capacity for concord. Francesco Tiberi lives in Spain in the final years of the Old and beginning of New Regime, which keeps a certain parallelism with the political transition that took place after the death of Franco. Although the two situations were resolved differently. The last one was a peaceful step, while the former one was the opposite. For the study of the subject, the offices of the Nuncio and the responses of the Vatican Secretariat of State were used. The circumstance includes that the director of the Thesis, professor Federico Suárez, expert in the reign of Fernando VII, for his historical studies, was in favor of the Carlist cause and yet for his priestly ministry was appointed chaplain of a Bourbon king, Juan Carlos I. But even in that he always acted with a sofisticated professionalism..
